Quote on the EU Constitution

This 325 page behemoth is impossible to read and figure out. Imagine our own Constitution where phrases of sentences provide decades of debate. Now multiple that by 30. That’s the EU Constitution. This quote I think sums it up best and why France is poised to turn it down (in even higher numbers now that Chirac has come out and stumped for it).

“I believe that it is fundamentally undemocratic to propose a constitution that is so difficult to read,” Chouard writes.
